Send GitHub check suite failures to Discord

Catch a failing check suite in Discord and see which repository ref needs attention.

Trigger

Check Suite Status / Conclusion Changed

Triggers when a GitHub check suite changes its status or conclusion for a given ref. Monitors all check suites associated with a git reference (branch, tag, or commit SHA) for changes to status (queued, in_progress, completed, etc.) and conclusion (success, failure, neutral, cancelled, skipped, timed_out, action_required, startup_failure, stale). Optionally filters by GitHub App ID.

Action

Post message to channel

Sends a message to a specified discord channel (text, embeds, stickers, components, attachments); requires `send messages` permission and one of `content`, `embeds`, `sticker ids`, or `attachments`.

Why this helps

Build failures can sit unnoticed while the team is focused elsewhere or waiting on another update.

  • Bring check suite failures into the team's existing Discord conversation.
  • Include available status, conclusion, repository, and ref context.
  • Reduce the need to keep checking GitHub for workflow updates.

Setup

Build it in a few focused steps.

  • 1Connect GitHub and Discordbot once in the Notis portal.
  • 2Create an automation in the portal or tell Notis in plain language.
  • 3Describe that you want a Discord message when a check suite reports a failure, including available context.
  • 4Pick GitHub Check Suite Status / Conclusion Changed as the trigger and choose where run reports go.
  • 5Test with one real check suite event.

Questions about this workflow

Does this trigger cover every check suite?

It monitors check suites associated with the configured Git reference. Set up the event for the ref you want to follow.

Can the Discord message include the failing check names?

The trigger provides check suite status and conclusion. Whether individual check names are available depends on the returned event data.

Supported Triggers and Actions

Notis builds workflows that link GitHub to Discordbot. A trigger fires from one place; an action lands in another.

GitHub triggers

Discordbot actions

Recurring trigger

Notis starts this workflow on a schedule, such as daily, weekly, or during business hours.

TriggerScheduled

Add recipient to group channel

Adds a user to a discord group direct message (dm) channel.

ActionInstant

Webhook trigger

Notis starts this workflow when an external tool or custom backend sends an HTTP request.

TriggerInstant

Update guild member information

Adds a user (who is not already a member) to a guild using their `access token` (which must have `guilds.join` scope), optionally setting nickname, roles, mute/deaf status, or flags.

ActionInstant

New Workflow Artifact Created

Triggers when a new workflow artifact is created in a GitHub repository. Monitors for newly created GitHub Actions workflow artifacts. Optionally filters by artifact name to restrict monitoring to specific artifacts.

TriggerPolling

Assign role to guild member

Assigns a role to a guild member, provided the bot has 'manage roles' permission in the guild and the role to be assigned is hierarchically lower than the bot's highest role.

ActionInstant

Branch Changed

Triggers when a GitHub branch changes. Monitors a specific branch for: - New commits pushed (head commit SHA changes) - Protection status toggled (branch becomes protected or unprotected) - Protection settings changed, including: required status checks and their enforcement level, admin enforcement, required pull request reviews (dismiss stale reviews, code owner reviews, approving review count, last push approval), required linear history, force push allowance, deletion allowance, conversation resolution, branch locking, and fork syncing.

TriggerPolling

Add reaction to message

Adds an emoji reaction from the authenticated user/bot to a specific message in a discord channel; does not return information about existing reactions.

ActionInstant

New Branch Created

Triggers when a new branch is created in a GitHub repository. Detects newly created branches. Deleted branches do not fire events.

TriggerPolling

Add or update thread member

Adds a user to a specific, unarchived thread; the user must have access to the thread's parent channel, and for private threads, the bot must already be a member.

ActionInstant

Check Run Status / Conclusion Changed

Triggers when a specific GitHub check run changes its status or conclusion. Monitors a single check run for changes to: status (queued, in_progress, completed, etc.), conclusion (success, failure, neutral, cancelled, skipped, timed_out, action_required), started_at, and completed_at.

TriggerPolling

Modify guild ban settings

Permanently bans a user from a discord guild, optionally deleting their recent messages (specify deletion period in seconds or days, not both).

ActionInstant

Check Suite Status / Conclusion Changed

Triggers when a GitHub check suite changes its status or conclusion for a given ref. Monitors all check suites associated with a git reference (branch, tag, or commit SHA) for changes to status (queued, in_progress, completed, etc.) and conclusion (success, failure, neutral, cancelled, skipped, timed_out, action_required, startup_failure, stale). Optionally filters by GitHub App ID.

TriggerPolling

Bulk ban users in guild with message deletion option

Bans up to 200 users from a discord guild, optionally deleting their recent messages; the bot must have 'ban members' permission in the guild, and this action is irreversible.

ActionInstant

New Code Scanning Alert Created

Triggers when a new code scanning alert is created in a repository. Fires an event for each newly created code scanning alert detected in the configured repository. Alerts can be filtered by Git reference, scanning tool, state, and severity. The payload includes the alert number, rule details, tool information, state, severity, and the location of the most recent instance.

TriggerPolling

Bulk delete messages in channel

Atomically bulk deletes messages in a discord channel for moderation or maintenance; deletion may not be instantaneous and messages are unrecoverable.

ActionInstant

Connect any two apps with Notis in the middle.

GitHub and Discordbot, or any other combination from 1,000+ integrations.
